In November 2018 Houston KTRK Channel 13 News featured my volunteer work clearing graffiti off of two area churches at no charge, after separate attacks of vandalism. The congregations, church elders and numerous community leaders offered praise and support of my work that went viral across social media. A few months later in January 2019 a small pavilion at a Houston city park was also vandalized and again I completed cleaning for free. This led to Dustless Blasting recognizing my work and featuring my cleaning efforts in their advertisements. This was an overwhelming and very gratifying experience to use my skills and business resources to help others.
